@alittleelena: Why is the egg sticking? The heat was on low. Maybe I didn’t have enough oil? #stainlesssteelpan #eggs @Hestan Culinary @Vital Farms

Check out our feed for a video on how we fry our eggs in a stainless steel pan (6 rows down from the top) 😏

Heat pan on medium-low, once it’s ready, turn down to low. ONLY butter for eggs. Not oil.

Did you wait for the oil to heat up or crack the egg immediately?

Check out the first two videos on my profile. I go over exactly how to cook eggs on non-coated cookware and the common pitfalls due to bad advice on social media.

Before the egg throw a lil chunk of butter n let it melt w the olive oil. That’s the only step you’re missing !!

For me it works best with butter, but once it’s pre heated, take the pan off the heat for 20-30 second so it doesn’t immediately burn the butter

Honestly, this wasn’t bad! You did everything right. Fried eggs can be really hard to cook on stainless steel. I typically use more oil than I would like to in order for it not to stick at all.

You need way more fat than that. Swirl it around to coat almost the entirety of the inside

Use butter on top of the Oil. You can use the avocado oil in spray, and then add the unsalted butter.

Don't use cold eggs. Put them in warm water for 10 or 20 mins before putting them in the pan. It helps big time.

Get a napkin and rub the oil into the pan. Should work.

Your oil needs time to heat up after it hits the pan. It doesn’t have to be butter only, regular oil is totally fine

I do avocado oil and butter, the avocado oil helps the butter not burn

Beef tallow and a small bit of butter. Way better than olive oil

sometimes it's the eggs. maybe up your heat a smidgen cause the heat will drop once you add the eggs and maybe your setting is too low for recovery to set it
